Intro: D7/9 Db7/9+ Gm7 C7/9- F7M Bb7/9 Am6 Ab/F G7
D7/9 Fdim
Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar
Gm7 F#7 F7M Dm7 F7M Gm7 Am7 F7M
Floating on the silence that surrounds us
Fm7 Em7 A7/13-
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams
D7/9 Dm7 Fdim
And a window looking on the mountains and the sea how lovely
D7/9 Fdim
This is where I want to be, here, with you so close to me
Gm7 F#7 F7M Dm7 F7M Gm7 Am7 Gm7
Until the final flicker of life's ember.
Fm7 Fm Fm6 Em7 Am7 Dm7
I, who was lost and lonely, believing life was only
G7/9- Em7 A7/13- Dm7
A bitter, tragic joke have found with you
G9 G7/9- C Bb9 A7/13-
The meaning of existence, oh, my love
